Paint is just primer with a little color. Bottom will be Candy Tangerine and top is same with a different base coat.

Looking good! Like your choice of rims. What rear end did you go with (GM, Ford or Mopar)?

Finally had a chance to do some more work on the truck. Finished welding on the rear end. Tabs made and brake lines in. Will be ordering the fuel cell next week and getting that in.
